Hodgson CFE BLK

Post by MISSED »

Saw a topic on this over to Saubier.So I went to there reloading page and had a squiz
Burn rate looks to be between 2219 and 2207
This should make it a good powder for the 17 fur ball and the 20 VT

Yeah, and what is the chance of this next wonder powder being imported ? :roll: Probably not, and in the slight possibility it is, it will be priced over the top as well.

Probably the same chance of buying Winchester ,Alliant,Vihtavouri and IMR to name just a few.

And something that may surprise all these Powders are price comparable to our own ADI range.

I posted on AHN my conversation with winchester :shock:
This is a rare place not only does the village idiot reside there but whole disfunctional fucking family. I can't bring myself to rehash it again.

Probably not much interest here but this powder in the 7.62x39 and the 123 gr bullet is a lift of nearly 150 fps,
would also be lovely in the 19 badger

Someone else might try and talk them but please about this new powder, but please try and remain calm I can assure its difficult but do make the effort. Tried very hard I did but lost the plot and the connection :lol: :lol:

You know my hearing situation so had to have Colleen help me with the call to them Andrew. Told them first their enquiry form would not send as there were'nt any subject options she said " that makes no difference just type you question and hit send" I explained I had tried three times to do this she " well your doing something wrong" me "please will you stop talking and listen to me, its regecting the email with explanation subject is not entered" she " try again" me FFS listen to me :x

So then I ask about the powder, she " it may not comply with export restrictions" me "its rifle powder how can it not comply as all the other powders you import do?" silence, me " can you put me onto someone who deals with powder imports?" she " thats me" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: me "goodbye"

Johno - mate could I please have the number for Winchester. I pride myself in being able to deal with difficult people even village idiots & imbeciles having had vast experience with Telstra from the far away countries of the Phillipines through to India & even Australia when lucky enough on such matters as mobile coverage , no f..ng coverage & zero reception. & as my wife often suggest I suffer from hearing impediment , therefore should be able to get somewhere with a small operation like Winchester.
Cheers

:roll: :roll: :roll:

I had a similar response when chasing up a different powder we don't have available here but we get other powders from same manufacturer. They said no market for the new powder...my response was well bit hard to have a market if it aint here. It would see more than a 50fps gain with the ackley more like 200-300 so pretty shit!!

Maybe one day it will come. Good luck with Winchester.
